Happy Birthday sweet Kate! Ardyth, I LOVE this card! I think I'm going to have to CASE it for Deens birthday. He is in the same boat as Kate. He desperately wants a dog or a cat but it ain't gonna happen! Well not now anyway. So a card like this is one he will LOVE! I am so impressed with the way you colored the dogs. They all have their own personalities 😜 And did you glossy accent those balloons? They look nice and shiney! 😘

You are getting triple dips from me today! Happy Birthday Kate I hope you have fun at the trampoline park. Your mom made you a super fun birthday card. Kate you share a birthday with Sam, he is only 11 not even a tween yet! ;)

This card is just the best--so cute and creative! I hope y'all had a great birthday celebration. We have been dogless for several months now and our youngest thinks (for whatever reason) that April will be a good time to get a dog. I think we have our hands full with 3 cats, 2 hermit crabs, and a fishy!

Happy Birthday to Kate for yesterday, Ardyth ... hope she had a fabulous time! Such a fun card ... great masking and colouring ... wondering if all those cute pooches will encourage her to want one just like them!! Hugs & bisous, Anita :)

Oh Ardyth, your little daughter is so beautiful, what a fabulous collection of pictures you shared with us. I'm so late in wishing her Happy Birthday but, better late than never, right? Welcome to the wonderful world of teenagehood!!!!!Your card is super fun, incredible masking of all of this cuties.She got her wish and then some.....13 puppies instead of 1, so clever.Big hugs for your newly teen girl!!!!!Maria.

OMGeeeeeeeeee...this is adorable...love it. And as usual, when I went to vote this morning, this was the first card, I loved -- but I know I can't vote for you...IF I could I would! You're so talented! :)

Happy birthday to Kate. 13 is an important milestone. She is now officially a teenager! Your card is wonderful. I love the idea of all those dogs masked and collected. Now, listen carefully....(Kate did not pay me to say this, I swear)...I have been an animal not-liker my entire life, and my girls begged me every day their whole lives for a dog. In a moment of weakness 2 1/2 years ago, I caved. I cannot describe how this dog has changed my life for the better and how much I love my best furry friend. Everyone who has ever known me has to be picked up off the floor from their state of shock. It is true. I wish I had said yes ages before. Just sayin.....
